Your Photos

ehhssmall

This photo of the Goodwin School 8th grade class was taken at the soon-to-open new East Hartford High School on Burnside Avenue in 1954. (Today it serves as East Hartford Middle School.) Sylvia Steadman, a member of the class, and four friends from Mrs. Paul's 1947 Second Grade got together recently at Alforno's restaurant to reminisce. "We are all not only East Hartford graduates - we are all Goodwin graduates of 8th grade-but we spent our 8th grade in what was to be the new EHHS on Burnside Avenue - Goodwin was growing to fast in those days - there were two 8th grades." Note the 8th grade boys with suits and ties - not bad for 13-year olds. "One of the 2nd graders brought along a report card from Mrs. Paul - she wrote in her comments to Bill's parents: ‘Billy seems to get much more fun out of school than is necessary.' Now how is that for tact!"

A thought for the day



"If A equals success, then the formula is: A = X + Y + Z, X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut."
